Pear and Arugula Salad with Goat Cheese and Candied Walnuts

See the lights sparkling in the back of the picture? That's our very first Christmas tree! This time of year, a salad like this can't be beat. The sour citrus of the lemon balances out the peppery flavor of arugula and the goat cheese ties it all together to make it a savory accompaniment to any special meal. I served it aside my Pan-friend Lemon Chicken the other night, and it was perfect.
